History

Bizarro Batman was created by Bizarro No.1 as a duplicate of the Earth hero Batman in order to team-up like Batman and Superman. They traveled to Earth, where they tried to shape the world after their own Bizarro World, creating chaos and even teaming up with the Joker. However, when they learned that Batman and Superman were creating order and perfection in their own Bizarro World, the odd creatures returned and banned the "vandals" from their world, promising to remain there in order to prevent them from fixing their imperfect world.[1]

Powers and Abilities

Powers

Bizarro Physiology: Bizarro Batman benefits (and suffers) from all of the same physical characteristics common to all Bizarros. This is not to imply that he is physically on par with his partner Bizarro No. 1, as Bizarro No. 1's power levels are based upon the characteristics of Superman.

Weaknesses

Kryptonite: All Bizarros are susceptible to the effects of Blue Kryptonite. An artificially created isotope, Blue Kryptonite robs a Bizarro of its superhuman talents. Prolonged exposure to Blue Kryptonite will ultimately prove fatal to a Bizarro.

Logic: Bizarro Batman functions from a backwards sense of logic. This behavioral disorder affects not only his brain, but also his pattern of speech. Bizarro Batman will often speak and think the exact opposite of his actual intentions.

Paraphernalia

Equipment

Useless Belt: Bizarro Batman carried a lot of worthless elements in his belt, which resembled Batman's Utility Belt. Some of the contents included old cigarette butts, used chewing gum, used bottlecaps, old rusty nails, cigar ashes, a corkscrew and general garbage like banana peels.[1]

Notes

This version of Bizarro Batman, including all history and corresponding appearances, was erased from existence following the collapse of the original Multiverse in the 1985–86 Crisis on Infinite Earths limited series. Even though versions of the character may have since appeared, this information does not apply to those versions.

Bizarro Batman is not an inherently evil creature, but by the nature of being a Bizarro, he often commits deeds which would be considered unlawful by the societal norms of Earth.
